Fading away

 How can you lose your identity?

It's like living in a hollow shell.

You're a stranger to yourself, a shadow of your former self.

You forget, forget things every 10 minutes, it's a constant struggle.


Your loved ones' hearts break to see you this way,

But no matter how hard they try, you're still a stranger in their eyes.

How can I bring back those memories to help you?

Can I handle this pain, knowing you've forgotten me?


All the memories we shared were precious to me,

Like last August, when we laughed and enjoyed each other's company.

But I guess that's just the way life goes.

I love you, but I'm sorry I can't help your dementia.


I'll always want you to remember our memories,

And I'll be here for you, always

 by your side.
